In the first nine months of 2025, gross written premium has reached $1.4bn, significantly ahead of plan. I'd like to thank the leadership team, including Darren Argyle who acted as Interim CEO, for their support over the last few months.

Anthony will be responsible for building on this foundation, continuing to deliver a measured approach to future growth, driven by intelligent underwriting and the needs of our clients."

Anthony Baldwin, President, Westfield Specialty International, said: "Westfield Specialty stood out to me for its remarkable profitable growth story, world-class team and unique culture. Westfield provides enduring certainty and confidence, and its combination of tradition and innovation delivers a compelling proposition for brokers and clients alike. I'm delighted to be working with this team to lead the business into the next phase of our international growth."
